Overview
The Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS II USM Lens is ideal for sports and wildlife photography, but not the best option for travelers due to its weight. Its long focal length and image stabilization features make it a great choice for capturing fast-moving subjects such as birds and surfing.

However, its weight and size may make it less practical for everyday use or travel photography. Photographers who prioritize portability and convenience may find other lenses more suitable for their needs. Overall, the Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS II USM Lens is a valuable investment for photographers who specialize in sports and wildlife photography and prioritize image quality over portability.
